Tuakana Teina Chair Mentoring Programme 📣

To support the vision of community organisations in Aotearoa New Zealand to be well governed, Community Governance NZ and the Institute of Directors (IoD) have formed a new partnership, to form the Tuakana Teina Chair Mentoring Programme.

A massive congratulations, to the 25 successful mentees, 2 are from Tairāwhiti:
▪️ Dan Croskery - Chair of Gisborne Boardriders
▪️ Eloise Wallace - Chair Museums Aotearoa

We worked closely with Dan in submitting his application and are thrilled he is now part of this new programme. His experience will help inform Taupua Tairāwhiti on best practice for establishing a local governance programme here in Tairāwhiti.

We wish both Dan and Eloise all the best as they embark on the next phase of their governance journey. We are so pleased that IOD selected some regional participants as part of their first intake.
